Who would ever listen to a salesperson at Best Buy. in the first place?
Integrated amps have come a long way. I dream of owning a Luxman 509. Integrated amps help clear the clutter and they help to make room inside an entertainment center. All I care about is knowing what's inside the cabinet. If I had an expensive turn table, I would switch gears and go with a rack and use a small LED light on an arm to spotlight to show it off. If I had a $100,00 sound system, I might look at things differently. I wonder at times how many of our members have systems costing more than that.
